Martin Kabrhel Wriggles Free of Straight

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

With an under-the-gun limp for 1,000, Alberto Fonseca called next to act, as did two more players. Martin Kabrhel, in the big blind, was getting short on chips, and he announced, "Pot," for 6,000. Fonseca was the only caller.

“Cost Rica versus Czech Republic,” Fonseca grinned wolfishly.

The flop was {7-Spades}{10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}, and Kabrhel bet 4,000, which Fonseca called.

The turn was the {5-Spades}, and Kabrhel check-folded to a bet of 8,000 from Fonseca.

“Do you think you’re winning? Two queens?” Kabrhel asked.

Fonseca showed him {8-Spades}{6-Spades} for a made straight and a straight-flush draw, while Kabrhel insisted he folded aces.
